Thanks as always Scott for your advice.

That's scottyb to you
By the way I had an Eldorado Moto Guzzi long ago - It was a very nice bike.

After I lifted it and put on bigger tires it would do nearly 30. It would still spin them on the dirt road, and in the grass it would almost (but not quite) lift the front tires off the ground. If I had a couple bags of feed in the back of the cart it would lift them (and then not go back down)

I have never experienced this type of results. We do not sell this motor as a speed motor. It is a torque motor. I don't want people expecting similar results.

Plum Quick told me 8-10 weeks and the motor was at my door in 3 weeks. Maybe you will get lucky too

Maybe I’m missing something? Then why on the redhawk/admiral website does it advertise it as a speed motor and say speed up to 22mph? Seems to me like the results I had on my old cart were perfectly in line with what as advertised.
